Not while you’re charging via USB-C I’ve got a MagSafe nightstand and powerbank that both leave the port free. I do use Bluetooth for audio so I don’t actually ever use the USB-C port at all.

What product are you referring to? One where you can’t use USB-C headphones or an adapter?

We didn’t have a scheme at work until I asked for one. Now we do. Our company had around 40 people and the scheme is open to anyone.

I thought that exact thing and opened the comments to see you’d already commented with it. There is a “case files” podcast on it that I found quite good.

Or the car. Octopus in the UK can control both cars and chargers depending on compatibility. They control my Tesla as my charger isn’t compatible.

I would also like to know the company name please. Would love to get a Forster battery + invertor system installed. Seems like the battery is £2k for 16kWh and maybe £1k for an inverter? so interested in your cost breakdown. https:/&#

Somehow? It’s a well established and publicised fact that it’s due to the price of gas. It’s so well established that anyone posting a comment here about the high price of electricity without mentioning it has an ulterior motive.

Sure - but does this have the context of the original question that the user asked? If not it seems that it isn’t really conversational and more of a “compiler”. How would something like “I want an appointment either on Monday afternoon aft

I’ve had that exact thing happen in Ubuntu too. Needed a usb Ethernet dongle to get it working again.

All the updates (so far…) have added features that I actually like. Things like Apple Music integration and even safety things like cross-traffic alerts when reversing. Even today my wife left her phone on the charge pad and the car beeped

Imagine what humanity could achieve if we worked together. If robots/AI work out and we do have 100% spare time then you’d hope there would be more of this sort of thing. Such a shame that it’ll probably just mean more inequality, at l

We are talking about errors happening in user space applications with ECC operating normally and what the application ultimately sees. My point is that when writing an app you wouldn’t be able to “not use” ECC accidentally or easily if it’s

by thebruce87m 7mo ago
I think you responded to the wrong person, unless you think I was implying that the extra bits needed for ECC didn’t need extra space at all? I wasn’t suggesting that - just that they aren’t like a checksum that is stored elsewhere or somet

by thebruce87m 7mo ago
That shouldn’t make sense. It’s not like the ECC info is stored in additional bits separate from the data, it’s built in with the data so you can’t “ignore” it. Hmm, off to read the paper.

That would look good on a headstone.
